[QUOTE="Upya, post: 5111, member: 5461"] Thanks for all the warm welcomes. I have been given 3 months to see if I can control my BG levels with diet alone by my diabetic nurse. I am 3 weeks into this and have brought my readings down from 23 on the first day to 13 today. My first hba1c was 12.8. I have been following the diet advice strictly and have been swimming twice a week and exercising a lot more regularly than I ever have before. I am hoping to be able to control my diabetes with diet alone as I have quite a hectic life style with two disabled children and can't guarantee what times I can eat. Have been told that once on medication you need to be strict with this to avoid hypos, which I find pretty scary. Unfortunately the diabetic nurse thinks I am looking at a medication route :( I am determined to prove her wrong, but either way I am sure you will be seeing my face around here regularly. Thanks again for all the welcomes and the help you have given me already. [/QUOTE]
